Radio Functions

Automatic Tuning
Select FM1, FM2 or AM using the AM/FM button. Press the JOYSTICK
(left or right) to search for the next strong station.
Press left or right again to start a new search.
If no stations are found press either button again to cancel.
Manual Tuning
There are two ways to tune into a station manually.
• Turn the TUNING dial to set the desired frequency.
• Press and hold the JOYSTICK (left or right).
The frequency rolls slowly in the selected direction and increases
speed after a few seconds.
Release the button when the desired frequency shows on the
DISPLAY. If the frequency needs adjusting, briefly touch one of the
arrows.
Storing Stations
10 stations can be stored for FM1, FM2 or AM (a total of 30 stations).
8.8
To store stations:
Tune to the desired station. Press and hold the KEYPAD button (0-9)
where the station is to be stored. The sound will be muted for a
couple of seconds and 'Station Stored' will show on the DISPLAY.
Select a stored station by either pressing a KEYPAD (0 to 9) button or
use the SCROLL button to scroll through the station list.
Autostoring Stations
Up to ten AM or FM stations can be automatically tuned and stored
in a separate memory.
Select FM1, FM2 or AM using the AM/FM button. Start the search by
pressing and holding AUTO (more than two seconds).
'Autostoring.' shows on the DISPLAY and a number of strong stations
(maximum ten) from the selected frequency band are stored in the
autostore memory. It there are no stations that are sufficiently strong,
'No AST Found' shows on the DISPLAY.
If more than ten stations are found, the ten strongest are selected.
This function is particularly useful if you are in an area in which you
are unfamiliar with the radio stations and their frequencies.
The stations are stored on the KEYPAD (buttons 0-9). When the radio
is in autostore mode, 'Autostoring' is shown on the DISPLAY.
Return to the ordinary radio mode by pressing and releasing AUTO
(less than 0.7 seconds). Pressing and releasing either AUTO or BACK
will also cancel autostoring.
Select an Auto stored station by pressing AUTO, then a KEYPAD (0 to
9) button or the SCROLL button to scroll through the station list.
Automatic Search for Transmitter
'PI seek' shows on the DISPLAY when reception is poor for the
selected station. The radio automatically searches for the strongest
transmission for that station. 'PI seek Back to cancel' is shown on the
DISPLAY until the station is found.
Scanning
Scanning automatically searches for the next strong FM or AM station
signals. When the radio finds a station, scanning pauses for
approximately eight seconds, after which it continues.
Select FM or AM with the AM/FM button.
Press SCAN. 'Scan' shows on the DISPLAY and each found station will
play for approximately eight seconds. Press SCAN or BACK to accept
the station.
If no stations are found press either button again to cancel.
